Unit 3.5 Flashcards
The internal features of the brain are
Cortical tissues, subcortical tissues, cerebral, thalamic, and hypothalamic nuclei
The color of cortical tissues are
Subcortical tissues
Gray indicating presence of nissle bodies
White indicating presence of myelinated axons
Cortical neurons projectile axons to other regions in the brain or to the spinal cord creating
The bulk of the subcortical tissue
Nuclei are gray regions that are
They are clusters of neurons dedicated to
Specific nuclei are seen at
Deep within the subcortical tissue
Particular function
Different levels of coronal sections
The corpus callosum is an axonal fibers that
Allows for
Is located
Cross accents from the right hemisphere to the left hemisphere and vice versa
Communication between the two hemispheres
Superior to the lateral thalamus and basal nuclei
Cerebral (basal) nuclei are _ masses largely involved with
Is associated with

Gray
Motor function
Emotion and behavior
Deep within the subcortical tissue and are inferior and lateral to the lateral ventricles
The thalamic nuclei are
Control
Located
Sensory relay centers to the primary motor and somatosensory cortex
Mood and responses to sight and sound
Superior and lateral to the third ventricle
The hypothalamic nuclei regulates
Located
the pituitary extends by a
Axonal fibers, hypothalamohypophyseal tract, extend from the hypothalamus to the posterior pituitary gland to regulate
The ANS, endocrine system, H2O, food, temperature, sleep cycles
Inferior and lateral to the third ventricle
Stalk from the hypothalamus
Pituitary function
The cerebral ventricular system is a series of chambers that
The ventricle system continually baths
CSF production occurs in the
The choroid plexus are toughs of blood vessels and epidermal cells within the ventricles that leak CSF into the
Embryonically developed from the internal lining of the neural tube
Nervous tissue – neurons with CSF to provide nutrients in remove waste
Cerebral ventricles from a deep tissue, the choroid plexus, which is derived from the Pia mater
Chambers
CSS is derived from
CSF circulation occurs when
XSCSF is removed by
Blood plasma
CSF spells from the ventricles and enters the subarachnoid space in the central canal of the spinal cord
Arachnoid villi (granulations) at the dural venous sinuses
